If you have flashed Despair Kernel v1.04 - revert back to v1.03 as there's an issue with fingerprint being slow on AOD
Google's mainline 5.15 kernel branch (with downstream Android changes + drivers) works surprisingly well on the Pixel 6.

Play Store starts listing games supporting Android 12’s Game Dashboard for Pixel 6
9To5Google

One of the feature additions in Android 12 is Game Dashboard, as Google recommend game developers to take advantage of the API, more and more developers are starting to implement it and available games are showing in a new section called "Optimised for Pixel 6."

Below the section title, it shows a small wording “Boost performance or save power,” which hints that in the Gaming Dashboard, you can choose the priority gameplay for peak performance or longer battery life. Players can check it in the "Optimisation" tile, and it present three options:
Performance: Maximizes frame rate
Standard: Uses the game’s defaults
Battery Saver: Extends battery life

Currently, there are a few games that have implemented the API, and you can check out the list in the article if you are interested. Also, Game Dashboard seems to be available on selected Android 12 devices as Google said.

Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro receiving mysterious November update from Google
9To5Google

UPDATE: The new update apparently fixed the fingerprint scanner issue.

November security patch arrived as usual for all Pixels a few week ago but Google is releasing another update for the Pixel 6 mysteriously.

Google released new builds for both phone with global and Verizon variants, with the build number slightly bump from .36 > .37, which should be a minor update. Google hasn't made any public announcement about it, and the changelog is also unknown. The updater on the device isn't asking users to update as reported from 9To5Google.

Download:
• Pixel 6: Factory Images (Verizon) | OTA (Verizon)
• Pixel 6 Pro: Factory Images (Verizon) | OTA (Verizon)

*Build Number: SD1A.210817.037 (.A1 for Verizon)

You won't be able to charge your Pixel 6 with a low quality USB-C cable
9To5Google

If you are wondering why you can't charge your Pixel 6 with some of the old available cables you are using for a while, it probably because it isn't PD supported, which Pixel 6 will refuse to charge.

In a Google support forum, many people reporting that they faced the same issue, which their old cables can charge other phones but not their Pixel 6. The original poster said he had tried out 20 chargers but none of them work. After a few days, he realised chargers that are PD supported will charge the Pixel 6 properly.

Google actually did mention in their support page that "other Android cables and power adapters might not work with Pixel phones." One Googler explained in the forum that the battery would have drain at the same rate when charging with it, hence damaging the battery health. Anyway, It's just too bad that Google isn't shipping any charger in the Pixel 6 box.
